The Aami river is one of the most prominent rivers in Gorakhpur. The river can play a vital role to contribute social-economic structure of Gorakhpur. The study was conducted to assess the physical and chemical water quality parameters of the Aami River. The water samples were collected in a plastic container of 2 liters capacity from three different sites, one each from upstream, midstream and downstream along the river in 2020 during summer, winter and rainy season. Maghar was selected for upstream (Site-1), Chataye bridge was selected for midstream (Site-2) and Sahgaura village was selected for downstream (Site-3) sampling sites in the present study. A number of physicochemical water quality parameters including water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO) biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), pH, suspended solids and total solids were measured in laboratory base analysis. The mean values of such respective parameters in all were compared with the water quality before the Covid 19 and during the covid-19 lockdown period. The study result revealed that comparatively river water quality improved in several parameters, during covid-19 lockdown period than before covid-19 lockdown. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
